The stars twinkle
The candles shine
The moon glistened on the ice
Mother and child gather around
And carols are the only sound
To hear on this cold Christmas Eve
On this cold Christmas EveThe fire cracks
As coals burn bright
Mother and child gather tonight
To read a story of long ago
Of a child born to Save us all so
And on they read on this cold Christmas Eve
On this cold Christmas EveWith cheeks so Rosy
And noses so red
Mother and child go off to bed
On warm cozy blankets
They put down their heads
To dream on this cold Christmas Eve
On this cold Christmas Eve
